INTRODUCTION

Are you looking for a sailing vessel to carry you to the shores of your dreams? Would you like to experience a luxury sailing vessel which will keep you safe and comfortable while enjoying mother nature's changing moods? Do you want to feel butterflies in your stomach each time your eyes gaze upon the sleek contours of your sailing companion resting in her slip anxiously awaiting your return for the next sailing adventure, or feel your heart miss a beat as she skips across the waves and throws sea spray in your face in a freshening breeze? If this is how you feel about sailing and you are looking for the perfect sailing vessel, your search is over. NAUTORIOUS will excite you, care for you, and love you and, despite her name, she really is a good soul (with her naughty side!). Take the time to explore and know her. She will not disappoint you. She is waiting for her next soulmate in Annapolis Maryland .

NAUTORIOUS is the finest example of the Irwin 52 series afloat in the world today. She has been meticulously maintained and upgraded since she was acquired by her third and current owner in 1990. In addition to her spacious, airy, and comfortable accommodations, she has first class mechanical and sailing systems in excellent condition which have been upgraded and designed for easy and safe shorthanded sailing. In two major refits, in addition to continual improvements, the owner has invested over $450,000 in documented upgrades above and beyond the normal annual maintenance needed to keep NAUTORIOUS in excellent condition. Every system on NAUTORIOUS has been replaced, upgraded, and or refinished to yield a yacht which is superior in all respects to the yacht when new. NAUTORIOUS has a turn of speed which is surprisingly fast for a cruiser or a racer reflecting her Ted Irwin design pedigree. In short, NAUTORIOUS is a joy to sail and cruise and is the ideal yacht for a couple or family interested in day sailing, racing, or long distance cruising and will not fail to please.

•Hull has been peeled, rescheduled, and faired to eliminate any blistering and built back with extra laminate schedule and vinylester resin (2000).

•New aluminum Mast step (2005) Deck features include:

•Entire foredeck and side decks have been re-cored with closed cell foam core, the exterior skin replaced using vinylester resin and the entire deck re-painted to a level better than the original condition when new (2005)

The interior of NAUTORIOUS has been meticulously restored and updated to a condition better than when the boat was new and likely nicer than any other Irwin on the market. Systems, fixtures and finishes have been carefully selected for quality and function as well as aesthetics with a goal of the best possible for the application and conformity with ABYC recommendations. Satin-varnished teak interior woods with traditional teak and holy cabin sole, light colored countertops, overheads and fabric selections contribute to the large, open, well-lit interior spaces (refinished 2008). The Ted Irwin design makes great use of the interior space, providing three cabin, three head boat with a full width salon and an additional cabin/office that feels much larger than other similarly sized boats.
